UEFA also charged Sevilla manager Eduardo Berizzo after he was sent to the stands by the referee Danny Makkelie for throwing the ball away when it went out of play during his side's 2-2 draw with Liverpool.

Following his dismissal, Berizzo will be suspended for at least Sevilla's next European match against Maribor, UEFA said on their website.

The UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body will deal with both the cases on Sept. 21.
